UVA Transfer Chances

I’m hoping to apply for transfer to UVA CAS as a 3rd year incoming student for political philosophy and law as an in-state student going to a community college.

GPA: 3.493

Credits: 60 (AS in General Studies)

EC’s/awards:

National champion debater

National semi finalist in extemporaneous speaking

Multiple region golds and silvers in speaking across Chicago, LA, and other places

Member of best chorus in my area, member of most elite part of said chorus, performed concerts in front of 500+ people a multitude of times

Performed in a summer choir headed by a Yale professor of music

Earned highest academic award at my school

Won a campus wide talent show at my school where I received a cash prize

Was a former Thomas Jefferson scholarship nominee and boys state member of Virginia in HS

I’m not sure if they care about high school stuff since I’m a 3rd year transfer but I digress. I just want to know if I have a shot, or maybe if the GPA stuff just isn’t good enough. Also forgot to mention, I have all my transfer classes done except 3 languages due to personal circumstances. Thank you to everyone for your input, I super appreciate it!
